Ding ding ding time for a reminder about this all you long-biographied performers out there.
Performers, lemme tell you something real quick….Very few of you justify a 500-word biography. For the sake of the sanity of editors everywhere, throw us a bone and write yourself a nice, snappy, 60-70 word bio. We’ve got room for an appetiser, not a three course meal.

Green’s great but I would have liked a culture secretary who knows about culture.

Oh, who’s this? Why, it’s @gdavies and Little @AlexHorne, setting such classic tasks as ‘create a comic strip with this potato’, and ‘launch this egg’ in the inaugural Halsway Young Folk Taskmaster. No fun was had. No sirree.

Having watched my parents scroll Instagram and be taken in by every April Fool going, I now fully understand how it’s possible to scam the elderly out of cold, hard cash.

11-years-ago me would have *really* enjoyed sitting in the hall between three smallpipe groups, one of which is just looking drone de-tuning and tuning, on a Saturday morning.
Finally got my hands on Northumbrian pipes. Managed to play 'four dying cows' & 'incessant ambulance'. @kathryntickell what's the secret?!.
